Ahh thank you, that was very informative! I might think about getting a 500 as I do want to go on the highway.

I kind of want a Harley type of bike (what ever that kind is called? The kind that sounds deep and rumbles). They look comfortible. Which is why I decided to ask this question in this thread, because I thought it was kikd of funny to see a community called Motorcycles shitting on Harley Davidson, and I thought that was like the Kleenex of motorcycles. Like, the standard. The kind that you get if you want a good bike.

Obviously I'm clearly very ignorant about a community I'd like to join... Lol

The Honda Shadow 750 looks and sounds quite like a Harley while avoiding Harley's high prices and gaining Honda's great reliability.

That's really fucking cool, and while I wasn't sure if Honda was known to be good for bikes before, I think that's a direction I could consider now

Honda has been making all sorts of bikes for many decades now, and they generally are inexpensive and reliable, if slightly boring compared to competitors. The Shadow is a great option for a classically styled cruiser bike.
